The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 862 Zhu Qing ([-])

Four years later, she still remembers his smell. Why?

During the first three months that Zhu Qing worked as an errand beside Mr. San, he couldn't help but think about this issue every night before falling asleep.

The relationship between the third master and the eldest lady is very good. If the third master has any delicious food or fun things, he will send a copy to the eldest lady. He is the one who delivers the things.

The eldest lady often comes to sit in Sanye's courtyard. She doesn't sit there for long and leaves after drinking a cup of tea.

While the two siblings were talking, he was adding tea and water.

Compared with four years ago, she seems to have calmly accepted the fact that she cannot see, and her speech and behavior are much more stable, like a real lady.

Her voice became softer and more melodious, like a cool breeze in summer, which made her feel comfortable.

When he arrived at the third master's side, Zhu Qing was still the same as before, getting up early to practice and practicing before going to bed.

Before coming to Xie's house, his master told him that if you practice your body well, you can improve your kung fu by another [-]%, so don't let it go to waste.

The yard was too small, and he was afraid of disturbing the third master's sleep. After reporting to the master, the master allowed him to go to the back garden to stretch his hands and feet.

He usually goes after the second watch and returns before the third watch to practice for an hour.

I don’t know if it was God’s arrangement that he met her again.

The woman beside her was replaced by the maid Yunhui, who supported her as she walked in the garden.

She doesn't come every day, she only comes when a bright moon hangs in the sky. She told Yunhui that this is absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon.

If she reaches the straight bluestone road, she will let Yunhui let go and walk alone.

She walked well, her back was straight, and she didn't look like a blind person at first glance.

She would walk back and forth on that straight road several times before she would sit down when she was tired.

The bones disappeared as soon as she sat down, and she leaned lazily on Yun Hui, acting coquettishly, or talking about her thoughts... In short, she was completely different from the eldest lady of the Xie family in front of others.

Zhu Qing didn't want to disturb them.

On days when the moon hung in the sky, he would come to the garden half an hour earlier. When they came, he would hide in the dark and meditate; when they left, he would get up and practice for another half hour.

Gradually, he discovered that the eldest lady had a father, a mother, an older brother and a younger brother, but she was actually all alone.

She was afraid that her parents would dislike her, so she acted well-behaved and never asked for anything or went out of the yard.

She didn't dare to offend anyone and spoke softly to everyone.

She was like a mouse, huddled in a hole, and only dared to reveal her head when the night got late.

The woman from four years ago was the eldest lady's wet nurse. Because she had nursed the eldest lady, and because she had a good relationship with my wife, she became domineering in the courtyard.

The eldest lady didn't dare to say anything, for fear that the woman would complain to the wife, or that the wife would dislike her, so she had no choice but to swallow her anger.

Later, the woman became more and more bold and stole the eldest lady's jewelry to pawn it outside. Only then did she alert the old lady of Xie's mansion and drive her out.

"Yunhui, my mother gave birth to a mouse that can dig holes, and a cat that can catch mice. The birth of me is not only useless, but also expensive to raise. My life is really unnecessary."

"Miss, don't think too much, the master and his wife both love you!"

"Yeah, they love me if I'm obedient and well-behaved."

Under the moonlight, Zhu Qing, who was hiding in the dark, just stared at the eldest lady, unable to take his eyes away.

Love her if she is well-behaved and obedient;
I hate her if she doesn't behave well and obey her orders.

The fate of the eldest lady of the Xie Mansion is so similar to that of this young man. He holds nothing in his own hands.

From that day on, Zhu Qing felt that his heart was sinking into a vortex bit by bit.

The vortex is deep or not, but there is only one Xie Wenshu in it;

The whirlpool was deep, if not deep. In addition to the eldest lady, there was also a penniless boy inside. The two of them were thousands of miles apart.

A year has passed;

Three years have passed;
Five years have passed...

The girl grew up to be a big girl, and he finally became the personal bodyguard that the third master could not do without.

When the moon shines, they still gather in the garden;

There is still one in the light and the other in the dark.

It was another full moon day, and she and Yunhui came on the moon. Unexpectedly, just after sitting for a while, the sky suddenly became dense with dark clouds, a strong wind blew, and raindrops fell immediately.

"Miss, go to the verandah to take shelter from the rain. I'll go back to the room and get an umbrella."

Yunhui helped her into the verandah and ran away in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she left, a thunder struck in the sky, a strong wind blew, and there were ping-ping-pong-pong sounds everywhere. Her face was pale, and she sat helplessly holding the corners of her clothes with her hands.

In the strong wind, heavy rain fell, and the verandah could not block the wind and rain.

She wanted to find a place to hide from the rain, but she didn't know where to go, so she could only squat down and curl up.

Zhu Qing looked uncomfortable and anxious from the side, and couldn't help it anymore and rushed out.

"Miss, offended."

He picked her up, put her on his shoulders, carried her to a blind corner of the verandah, and put her down.

The dead end is surrounded by walls on three sides, but can only accommodate one person.He stood in front of her, blocking the wind and rain from the side without the wall.

"Is it Zhu Qing?" Her voice trembled.

"Ah."

"It's so late, why are you here?"

"Passing by."

"Thanks to you."

"Ah."

After a long silence, she spoke again: "You haven't left, have you?"

"Still."

"When Yunhui comes, you can leave."

"it is good."

"Is it raining where you are standing?"

"No."

"Really not?"

"Not really."

She seemed a little unconvinced and breathed a sigh of relief, "The rain will stop soon."

"Ah."

do not stop.

It just keeps going down.

Zhu Qing thought in his heart.

However, the rain did not stop, and Yunhui came in a hurry holding an umbrella.

He shouted, Yunhui was stunned and ran over quickly.

"Miss, I'm leaving."

"Wait."

She stopped him: "Yunhui, how many umbrellas did you bring?"

"Two."

"Give one to Zhu Qing."

"Miss, no need."

"Take it."

She forced a smile at him: "Don't get caught in the rain, be careful of catching a cold."

The master and servant left holding an umbrella.

Zhu Qing did not leave.

He was reluctant to leave.

His eyes followed the figure under the umbrella, and he didn't move a foot until the two of them disappeared at the end of the rain and fog.

"Don't get caught in the rain, be careful of catching a cold."

Every rainy day in the future, he would think about this sentence over and over again in his heart.

There is only aftertaste.

Even if Zhujiacun is still there, even if his parents are still there, he will never be worthy of her for the rest of his life.

Even if she is blind.

The whirlpool grew bigger and bigger, completely sucking him in. He was sucked in willingly and happily.

How to do it?

How painful it would be if it entered the heart and then dug it out of the heart.

He didn't want to feel pain, so he kept hiding it for months and years. He hid it very well and stably, and even the closest third master and Ding Yi didn't notice it.

The girl is getting older and wants to get married. Looking across the entire Forty-Nine Cities, there is no suitable person for the eldest lady.

Men from high-ranking families despised her for being blind, and were afraid that the children they would give birth to would also be blind.

Ordinary men, the Xie family despises them as not worthy of her.

Year after year, it was delayed like this.

However, he has a faint hope, and in the dead of night, he will have a sweet dream with a heart as high as the sky.

In fact, it was not a dream, it was the preparation he had been making in secret for many years.
